Endoparasites of the blue whiting, Micromesistius poutassou from north-west Spain.

2005

AbstractThe communities of metazoan endoparasites of blue whiting, Micromesistius poutassou, in waters of north-west Spain were analysed and a geographical comparison made with other localities. Four hundred blue whiting collected in July 1999 and September 2000 were examined for parasites, excluding the head and gills. Six species were found: Anisakis simplex s.l. (L3), A. physeteris (L3), Hysterothylacium aduncum (L2 and L3), Stephanostomum lophii (metacercaria), S. pristis (adult), and Prosorhynchus crucibulum (metacercaria). The latter is a new host record, and A. physeteris is reported for the first time in blue whiting from the north-east Atlantic. Host gender was not a significant pr…

Involvement of actin-containing microfilaments in HSV-induced cytopathology and the influence of inhibitors of glycosylation.

1986

Two and a half hours after infection with a high dose of different strains of HSV-1 which induce rounding of cells, breakdown of actin containing microfilaments can be observed. At the periphery of the cell, actin containing knob-like protuberances were visible. Later on, actin seems to be located exclusively on the surface of cells. Observations were done by immunofluorescence microscopy, scanning electron-microscopy and immunoperoxidase staining of ultrathin sections. The envelope of HSV appears to be stained by anti-actin. Strain IES produces rounding of cells at a high dose of infection before fusion proceeds at 37 degrees C. Similar alterations were not observed with the fusing strains…

Consensus guidelines for the detection of immunogenic cell death

2014

Apoptotic cells have long been considered as intrinsically tolerogenic or unable to elicit immune responses specific for dead cell-associated antigens. However, multiple stimuli can trigger a functionally peculiar type of apoptotic demise that does not go unnoticed by the adaptive arm of the immune system, which we named "immunogenic cell death" (ICD). ICD is preceded or accompanied by the emission of a series of immunostimulatory damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) in a precise spatiotemporal configuration. Several anticancer agents that have been successfully employed in the clinic for decades, including various chemotherapeutics and radiotherapy, can elicit ICD. Moreover, defect…

Recurrent intraoral HSV-1 infection : a retrospective study of 58 immunocompetent patients from Eastern Europe

2010

Objectives. To revise the clinical features of the recurrent intraoral herpetic infection (RIOH) with respect to precipitating factors, demographic, clinical features and outcome. Study design. Fifty-eight, unrelated Caucasian, immunocompetent patients with positive laboratory test for intraoral Herpes simplex virus infection were studied. Results. The mean age in the women?s group (n=42) was 41.23 years (± 21.73) and in the men?s group was 32.25 years (± 15.68). Possible trigger factors were identified in 9 cases (15.5%). General symptoms were noted in 20 cases (34.48%). Most of patients in this study presented multiple lesions. 14 patients had vermillion lesions associated with intraoral …

Estudio longitudinal del impacto de la violencia de pareja sobre la salud física y el sistema inmune de las mujeres

2009

Introducción: Diversos estudios transversales han demostrado el impacto negativo quela violencia de pareja tiene en la salud mental, en la salud física y en el funcionamientode los sistemas fisiológicos de las mujeres. Si bien, han sido pocos los estudioslongitudinales realizados para establecer la evolución de dicho impacto en la salud delas mujeres a lo largo del tiempo. Objetivos: En este estudio se pretendió, en primerlugar, determinar la evolución del estado de salud física y del funcionamiento delsistema inmune de las mujeres víctimas de violencia de pareja y, en segundo lugar,establecer los factores personales y sociales que contribuyen a la recuperación de lasalud o la perjudican. M…

Localization of latency-associated transcripts in the uterovaginal plexus of herpes simplex virus type 1 and 2 latently infected mice.

1997

The vagina and medulla of the adrenal gland of mice vaginally infected with herpes simplex virus (HSV) types 1 and 2 were examined in the latent stage of infection (5 to 51 weeks post-infection). RNA in situ hybridization with HSV-1 and -2 latency-associated transcript (LAT) RNA probes resulted in positively stained neuronal cell nuclei in the uterovaginal plexus, but not in the medulla of the adrenal gland. These organs were chosen because HSV antigens can be detected not only in the vaginal epithelium, but also in neurons of the uterovaginal plexus and in the medulla of the adrenal gland at the acute stage of genital infection. To our knowledge, this is the first report describing LATs in…

Apoptosis induced by (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine in varicella zoster virus thymidine kinase-expressing cells is driven by activation of c-Ju…

2003

The molecular mode of cell killing by the antiviral drug (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl-2'-deoxyuridine (BVDU) was studied in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably transfected with the thymidine kinase gene (tk) of varicella zoster virus (CHO-VZVtk). The colony-forming ability of the cells was reduced to <1% at a concentration of approximately 1 microM BVDU, whereas for nontransfected cells or cells transfected with tk gene of herpes simplex virus type 1 (CHO-HSVtk), a 1000-fold higher dose was required to achieve the same response. BVDU inhibited thymidylate synthase in CHO-VZVtk but not in CHO-HSVtk and control cells. On the other hand, the drug was incorporated into DNA of VZVtk- and HSVtk-expre…
